The year was 1922. The man, Carlo Petosa, began something that simply will not stop. Undoubtedly, he did not know that he was destined to begin a legacy that would be passed on to his son, Joe, then on to his grandson, Joe, II, and now to his great grandson Joe, III who would carry on the same tradition spanning nearly a century of accordion manufacturing.

It is perhaps for this reason that so many artists find only the petosa equal to their insistence of excellence… an excellence that makes it worthy of consideration for yourself… the relentless pursuit of perfection: “petosa”, by which all other accordions are compared.
